Dubinsky disses Jarkko

Just how much is Jarkko Ruutu disliked? Here was Brandon Dubinsky’s take on the Senator pest via NYSD colleague Joe McDonald’s Ranger recap last night:

“He’s an idiot. He’s not professional out there. He tries to get under guys skin. It doesn’t matter. He’s not bothering me.”

The guy doesn’t deserve any respect just based on how he acts. That elbow against the Canadiens which got him a suspension is how he plays. And even worse, was his reaction when being sent off raising his arms to the crowd in salute with an evil grin. Despicable!

Ruutu is an effective player who can agitate and even contribute offensively as he can skate and has decent scoring ability though that’s not his purpose. However, he’s very dishonorable and deserves to be pounded into oblivion.

Maybe one of these days, he’ll get what’s coming to him. Saturday’s rematch would be nice.
